WILLIAM NORTH TO HONORABLE ROBERT MORRIS.
[From Executive Letter Book.]

April 22d, 1784.

Sir:

I am sensible of the obligation I am under for the goodness of your intentions with respect to me; but the appointment I have lately accepted from Congress obliges me to defeat them. I shall allways consider myself indebted to you, & beg your acceptance of my sincere thanks.

I have the honor to be, &c.,
WILLIAM NORTH.
